There's something about accepting the idea of one's eventual demise that imparts a degree of grace, if not wisdom, to many (thinking) people.
Bit it also something that plenty of people will never 'get'.
Personally, I have no desire whatsoever to live for ever and the idea of it fills me with disgust. Accept that what you've got is what you've got and it is temporary .

I feel that there's a lot to be said for the 'intimation of mortality' adding to our enjoyment of actually being alive. If we were all (to all intents & purposes) immortal, would that not cheapen what we experience as life?

"motoring columnist" - partisan much?

I thought that 'plush' had a meaning not dissimilar to what you are after, Lilith.
Mind you, it is only 1 type of 'feels nice to touch'; 'lubricious' makes me think of another.

OnPoint: Dear Labour Caucus, in reply to Ian Dalziel,
These Joycean trucks - has he put a tiger in the tank?
And should Fonterrible be worried about the new source of butter?

I think one of the primary factors that piques my interest is a woman's self-confidence. It might not be obvious, but women who are confident in themselves seem to give off vibes that my antennae are attuned to. It doesn't have to manifest (and seldom does) as alpha-female dominance, just a hint in the posture, the tendency to look life in the eye, that sort of thing, that arrests my scanning gaze. The slightly hunched, arms-crossed-over-chest look is the antithesis.
But from a quarter century of marriage, looking and admiring is about as much as I can offer these days. A bit of flirting, to make us both feel slightly charged, can be good but keeping it at a level that won't affect/upset my committed darling is the way to go.
